Intro
In this game you drive a bus and operate a bus company. You start in generic Californian city, then move on to cities elsewhere. You buy and decorate buses, manage routes, et cetera. There's a wide variety of options, you can even enable cash, requiring you to select the right change.
Review
This game has the same energy as Euro Truck Simulator. You perform a couple of actions over and over again. It's kinda relaxing and getting better at driving feels nice. The tutorial is solid and the starting city looks pretty nice compared to ETS2's cities that consists of a dozen buildings.
On the negative side, sometimes you "miss a stop" that you actually stopped at with no indication of what went wrong. Maybe a passenger was really slow? The GPS can also be a bit wonky at times. Early on i also almost got stuck because a mailbox was half-stuck under my bus (don't worry, i don't have a license).
Overall, not my thing, but if you've always dreamt of making people pay a couple of bucks to hitch a ride in your $300.000 vehicle - this might be for you.
